Hi Andrew, nice to meet you!

I wish me you opened the site in Italian so that I can add the contributions, I do not know because I can not open the website in Italian. Please can you help? How do I know if you opened the Italian version to be filled? [[User:Raggiodisole|Raggiodisole]] 12:06, February 23, 2011 (UTC)

== About the image in the text '''Ipomoni of Loutraki''' and also '''the article's title''' ==

+

Dear Andrew. Please check the image ''Portrait of Manuel II Palaiologos with his wife Heleni (Saint Hipomoni) and two of his sons'' at the text '''Ipomoni of Loutraki''' and its rest publications on the web. If there is any problem please erase it immediatelly. However, this is an medieval image kept at the Louvre museum.

+

+

Also, '''I strongly recommend to change the title of the article''' from '''Ipomoni of Loutraki''' to '''Saint Hipomoni''' because that is the english vesrion of her name and also she was never in Loutraki (a city in Greece), but only her holly skull was found there (at St. Patapius cave).

==Bishops by Century Template==

Hi Andrew, I think the Template you added on the "18th-19th c. bishops" category would also be nice to have on the rest of the categories, as it will make navigating easier, looks good. Thanks for cleaning up the category too. Cheers, [[User:Angellight 888|Angellight 888]] 19:09, March 14, 2012 (HST)

==Template:Quotation==

+

Hi Andrew, I was wondering if you could help me to add a new Template here, for block quatations. The Wikipedia Template is here: '''[[w:Template:Quotation|Template:Quotation]]'''

+

+

I have eliminated much of the source code from the Wikipedia model (it had a difficult to understand sub-template embedded in it), and I believe that the following syntax which I have pasted below, will work correctly here on OW; it will produce a text box; then, when using the Template syntax in an article, for large quotations, the text should appear within the box, like this:<br>

As an example of how the finished product should look like, see this section of the Wikipedia article on: [[w:Augustine_of_Hippo#Christian_conversion|Augustine of Hippo]]<br>

+

Whenever you have a moment, can you kindly test the syntax below, to see if it will work (check the source code for these comments on your page, in order to see the code). I didn't want to save it, as I am not ready to use it yet, and I am unsure if it will work). Also, my example here below on your page doesn't look centered. Thanks, [[User:Angellight 888|Angellight 888]] 16:43, June 18, 2012 (HST)

Primates of Russia

Andrew, I was thinking that the List of Primates of Russia would be more similar to the other List articles (List of Patriarchs of Constantinople and List of Patriarchs of Antioch, for instance). I left the other information in the history section of the Church of Russia article, as I think that would be a better context. Is there a particular reason you changed the numbers to bullets? (Again, conformity with the other List articles.) I didn't look too closely at the list (just thought it deserved its own article), so I would be interested in learning your views on it and how it should be arranged. —magda (talk) 14:47, November 23, 2005 (CST)

I see, I was looking at it from another direction. I was looking at it as sort as a timeline type of thing, with comments here and there. (The comments restarted the numbering so I just bullets.) I moved the comments when the list was moved, because they described the list entries. Andrew 14:58, November 23, 2005 (CST)

Categorizing New Pages

Sorry if you already know this, but make sure that you categorize new pages when you make them. Thanks for contributing. I know very little about the Antiphons. Oh, and you can delete that welcome message on your user talk page, it helps, but if you don't like it you can take it out. Hey! It's your user talk page. Joe 20050109

Good job on this page, particularly that it's a positive page rather than an anti-movie page. --— by Pιsτévοtalkcomplaints at 21:19, May 15, 2006 (CDT)

1917-1918 Russian Council

Andrew; I have been working on an article about the 1917-1918 Council based upon recent scholarship (a Phd dissertation) when I noticed your addition of a stub article on the same subject. Since my article is rather long, some nine or so pages, I took the liberty of taking information from your article to make mine more complete (such as where the first liturgy of the Council and where the enthronment were held). Our structures differ too much to edit your article. With the dissertation some 230 pages, my article only hits the highlights but addresses most of the main points of the Council! I have been tuning the article in the Sandbox and plan to introduce it as a replacement for your article. Hopefully it is still there to view. Wsk 10:06, June 12, 2006 (CDT)

Deletions

Hi Andy, I'm on it. Thanks for calling attention. In the future, you can just leave a note on a sysop's page. — FrJohn (talk)

Sysop Invite

Dear Andy,

I'd like to invite you to become an OrthodoxWiki sysop. This doesn't require much more time or commitment than you've already demonstrated. You'd be part of our ultra-secret OrthodoxWiki Sysop email list, where we work together to battle wiki-evil and talk about various issues affecting the life of OrthodoxWiki, and once in awhile bounce around ideas about its future. Also, you'd have superpowers on the wiki, allowing you to intervene in edit wars, and otherwise better manage articles. Finally, you'd be a reference point for other users - welcoming them in the name of OrthodoxWiki, and helping folks get the hang of the OrthodoxWiki style. Let me know if you'd like to accept this mission by leaving a note on my talk page or emailing me directly. Thanks, — FrJohn (talk)

No problem, and no pressure, Andy. We're grateful for your help as you are able. — FrJohn (talk)

Blank pages

Andrew, is there any way you can think of to find the pages with non-standard characters and address those issues? I keep coming across them at random, but it would be nice to know for sure when we're done dealing with them. —magda (talk) 11:43, March 7, 2007 (PST)

Recent images - Fair use doesn't apply

Dear Andrew,

Just a note to say that fair use doesn't applied to images just copied from another site. I'd suggest you try contacting them to get permission to use them here - we need an explicit OK. It would be great if they were willing to release the images under our default copyright scheme as well, or perhpas another Creative Commons license (by-nc-nd?). I'd send them a link to the article and hope for the best. Otherwise, we need to delete them. (You might want to delete them before they see the page.) Thanks,

Alexandria Dioceses

Thanks for setting up the category for the Alexandria dioceses. I've run into the problem of starting categories before and haven't been to figure out how it is done. Can you give me a pointer how to do it! Thanks again Wsk 21:02, July 23, 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Andy. Next time I'll give it a try - the thing I kick myself about is that several years ago I seemed able to start my own image category, but now I din't remember how I did it!!!Wsk 23:44, July 24, 2008 (UTC)

Book Review

I missed that it was a book review. On that premise it may have value, although my thought when I read it, is that it was an ad for a book. Thus my deletion response. If you think it has merit, then it should stay as you edited it. Wsk 18:56, September 16, 2008 (UTC)

URGENT - Ambush by computer generated Users

Help Needed ...

Hi Andrew, how are you going ... I know that you are excellent with codes (OSource) so I wanted to ask you for help on the following. Below, I have posted two codes. The first shows the column for each month populated and you will notice how the table wraps itself across the entire length of the screen. In the second, if none of the columns are populated, then the table reduces in width across the page. What I want to achieve is:

1) a constant width across the screen AND also a locked in column width for each of the months.
2) Reduced FONT size of the words that are placed in each column (perhaps about 50% of current size since each column will end up being populated by a few saints.

Are you able to modify the code to produce a workable result? Your helps is greatly appreciated!! Vasiliki 02:02, May 29, 2009 (UTC)

Table 1: Utilises full width of screen but only when all columns are populated

Bishops of Japan

Hi Andy,

Nice job getting all the bishops categorized by city. I was thinking how to breakdown all (So many!) bishops into some categorization. I hadn't thought of using the city names; I was lending to "countries" but didn't like it.

The reason for this note is I notice that we have two categories covering the ruling bishops in Japan: Bishops of… and Metropolitans of … . I proposed that we use only one and that be Metropolitans of … . This would follow having all the ruling bishops of Russia, as an example, whether they were bishops, metropolitans or patriarchs. Wsk 20:09, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Andy,

Your comments certainly open up further the dilemma I've had about the inconsistencies we have over titles, spellings, and such. I find myself going in circles at times, especially with transliterations. And, your question on the title for the ruling bishops of Japan hits right at it, as I may have been inconsistent myself.

I think the proper tittle for the metropolitans since autonomy is Metropolitan of Tokyo. According to the OCA's Orthodox America the title from Bp. Ireney to autonomy was bishop/archbishop of Tokyo. Before Bp. Ireney, I am not sure what the 'official' titles were. In a thesis by Masatoshi John Shoji, of which I have a copy, his references to Metr. Segius and Bp. Nicholas (Ono) are "…of Japan" and for Abp. Nicholas before them I'm less such.

After all this I suggest we use the current title of "…of Tokyo" and, as you note, just mention the differences in the article prolog, such as has been done for the Patriarch of Moscow. - Bill Kosar Wsk 16:39, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

Request to help

It's again me. I would like to create something which looks like film infobox card in Wikipedia. May be, to use a table attached to right margin? Then this thing will look like template:infobox inserted in a article, although it would not be a template in reality. I want to do so in this article. --Stone18 23:35, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

And another problem: this file Image:Puppy.jpg has error creating thumbnail. Help please.
